BADLY SCORED UP.
Outside Men Ponderins Over What the
Grand Jury Has in Store.
THE REFORM WORK DONE,
Murray and Franklin Arraigned---Sur-
misses and Theories Of
Indictments. a+,i,

While what the grand jury has done
toward indicting ''outside" people can
only be surmised, it is generally under
stood that there has been general
shaking up on all hands, and that there
will be many sensational developments
inside of the next few days. The Hoy
Quinlan monkey-wrench case was gone
into at some length, and it is generally
understood that the man who furnished
Franklin the monkey wrench with
which he moved bolt and
made his escape has been indicted.
BE this as it may, one ofHsthe
men who achieved an unpleasant no
tOriety through the case has been feel
ing decidedly uneasy, and yesterday
morning approached brother lawyer
with overtures to defend him If it
should turn out he was indicted. 1t
was also reported last night that dep
uty sheriff was looking for this man,
armed with bench warrant, but this
could not be verified. ~
Thomas j. Kelly, ex-license inspector,
was present all day, looking tired and
nervous. He didn't say much to his
friends but looked unutterable things.
Just previous to adjournment his case
was being considered and when the
jury adjourned three or four in
dictmentS were handed in, which in
itself looked bad for Kelly.
But it is not probable that he has been
indicted, as he was present when an ad-
jOurnment was taken, and no attempt
was made to arrest him. Even if he has
annoyance. The gambling houses were
also considered during the afternoon, land
"COl." William Tanner was one of the
witnesses examined. Nothing definite
could be learned as to whether an in
dictment had been returned or not, but
the men who have been prosecuted in
times past are somewhat alarmed, and
are holding consultations among them
selves.
The investigation of the way in which
John West ran the work house appears
tie have dropped completely out of sight,
as has also the Cutter investigation, and
it is not at all probable that any indict-
ments were returned. The keepers of
houses of ill-fame and designation
houses are undoubtedly ''in for it," as
are also the men who rent houses and
looms in blocks to lewd women.
THE JURY COMPLETES ITS WORK.
The grand jury of Hennepin county,
whose dOingS have attracted so much
attention for some days past, and caused
vast amount of speculation and uu-'
eaSineSS in certain quarters, has at last
adjourned, the interesting event taking
place at 1855 yesterday afternoon. At
that hour the body filed solemnly into
the presence of Judge Young and, after
presenting three OF four indictments,
stood awaiting the pleasure of the court.
After glancing at the indictments the
judge turned toward the jury and
thanked the members very cordially for
the services they had rendered. In con-
Guiding he said that he knew they had
sacrificed their time and their business
to great extent, but he felt sure that
the good they had accomplished bytheir
labOrS would in a measure compensate
them for their loss. He then dismissed
them until Monday, Nov. Ia. The jury
presented no slushy report" as former
grand juries have done, and this is con-
sidered one of it's most sensible acts.
County Attorney Davis is much pleased
with the jury and in speaking of it said:
The jury was the best that has ever sat in
or 'smarty'' on it. and everything that was
taken hold of was done in thorough man
ner.
MURRAY PLEADS NOT GUILTY.
There was perceptible stir in the
audience in the court room when Lewis
Murray was brought in at o'clock and
arralgned ON the charge of assault on
Mary Sylvester, with intent to commit
rape. Amid the utmost silence he
pleaded not guilty. AS soon as he ell
tered his plea, his attorneys, Erwin; &
Ryan, gave notice that they would apply
for change of venue to Ramsey county.
Judge Young said he would hear such
a motion Oct. 1, and remanded the priS-
oner to the county jail. Murray, since
his confinement, has become bleached
out little, and looked nervous and
worried. AS he entered the court room
door he glanced quickly around the
room, as though some one would put a
bullet into him. But no such incident
occurred, and as Murray walked up to
the bar to plead, he seemed to gain con-
fdence and answered mot guilty. in a
tone that could be distinctly heard all
over the room.
THE MONKEY WRENCH.
''Thomas B. Franklin" the alleged
forger, whose temporary escape from
the lookup some time ago stirred up
bitter fight between Police Commits
sioner NJ. Hoy and Detective NJ. Quin-
Ian, and caused the removal of three
trustworthy officers from the force, was
oil dlSHOo OhOlV olUSl VIC et1CCluOOH
session of the court. He admitted that
Thomas B. Franklin was not his true
name, but declined to tell, in very
decided manner, what it was. "That
name is good enough" said he, "and if
l go over the road it might just as well
be under the name of Franklin" He
pleaded not guilty to the charge against
him, and the case was set for Oct. IA.
